Question

Write the balance equations of the following chemical equations.

Lime water + Carbon dioxide $\to$Calcium carbonate + Water

Answer 1

• When the calcium hydroxide reacts with carbon dioxide then the product we get is calcium carbonate and water.

$\underset{\mathrm{Calcium}\mathrm{hydroxide}}{\mathrm{Ca}{\left(\mathrm{OH}\right)}_2}+\underset{\mathrm{carbon}\mathrm{dioxide}}{{\mathrm{CO}}_2}\to \underset{\mathrm{Calcium}\mathrm{carbonate}}{{\mathrm{CaCO}}_3}+\underset{\mathrm{water}}{{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}}$

since the above chemical equation is already balanced hence, no need to balance this.
